It's kind of impossible to say where this stands with regard to money since we don't know the length of the contract. The really interesting thing here really is that they've abandoned it as an exclusive, which kind of hammers the nail into the coffin of spotify trying to takeover podcasting. It looks a lot like they're basically paying Rogan and taking the ad revenue from across all platforms. This seems great for Rogan though - getting back his reach. But I just don't see how it makes any sense for Spotify other than saving face for their terrible strategic move.
